Frequently asked questions

Can a Plan Manager help me find Daily Living Supports in Cheltenham?

While a Plan Manager's primary role is to manage your NDIS funds and payments, many have a good understanding of the local provider landscape. They can often point you towards registered providers in your area, like Emotional Health Centre Pty Ltd or others, but the final choice and relationship building is up to you.

What's the difference between 'registered' and 'unregistered' providers for Daily Living Supports?

Registered providers, like all those listed on this page, are approved by the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission. You can use them if you have Plan Managed or Agency Managed funds.
